项目摘要

This project will contribute to the national need for well-educated scientists, mathematicians, engineers, and technicians by supporting the retention and graduation of high-achieving, low-income students with demonstrated financial need at Miami Dade College (MDC), an HSI that primarily awards two-year A.A. degrees, and the University of Florida (UF), a comprehensive research university. Over its five-year duration, this project will fund scholarships to 200 unique students: pre-transfer A.A. life sciences students at MDC; post-transfer B.S. Microbiology and Cell Science (MCS) majors at UF; or students who are seeking an M.S. in MCS at UF. Although the individual timelines may vary, students who enroll full-time will usually receive scholarships of up to 2 years at each level (i.e., while pursuing associate, bachelor's, and master's degrees). Miami Dade College enrolls a large diverse population of undergraduates, and transfer students are more likely to be from groups historically underrepresented in STEM, including women, veterans, and first-generation college students. Consequently, this project has the potential to significantly broaden participation in the STEM enterprise and to identify key factors that affect retention and success of low-income transfer students. This project will also increase access by offering online options for scholars pursuing B.S. and M.S. degrees through MCS. Online education further extends opportunities to nontraditional students including adult learners, student parents, and individuals from underserved areas. By leveraging a statewide network of research facilities and existing online course-based undergraduate research experiences, both in-person and online scholars will be able to participate in faculty-mentored undergraduate research. The overall goal of this project is to increase STEM degree completion of low-income, high-achieving undergraduates with demonstrated financial need. This project is informed by the lessons learned from a prior S-STEM project at MDC and UF that has awarded over 400 scholarships to students pursuing associate and bachelor's degrees. Project research will use focus groups, student surveys, institutional data, and existing S-STEM data from 2018 to investigate how changes to the FAFSA in 2024 impact eligibility and awards amounts for scholarship recipients. The research plan will also explore the longer-term impacts of scholarships on transfer, graduation, and persistence in STEM and identify barriers and successful interventions in the A.A. to B.S. transfer process. The project will be assessed by a qualified independent evaluator to ensure progress toward project goals and identify elements of the project that most effectively drive student success. Results of this project will be made available through presentations at STEM education conferences, informational webinars, and publications in peer-reviewed journals. This project is funded by NSF’s Scholarships in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics program, which seeks to increase the number of low-income academically talented students with demonstrated financial need who earn degrees in STEM fields. It also aims to improve the education of future STEM workers, and to generate knowledge about academic success, retention, transfer, graduation, and academic/career pathways of low-income students.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
该项目将通过支持迈阿密戴德学院(MDC)和佛罗里达大学(UF)(一所综合性研究型大学)中表现出经济需求的高成就低收入学生的保留和毕业,为满足全国对受过良好教育的科学家、数学家、工程师和技术人员的需求做出贡献。迈阿密戴德学院是一所主要授予两年制学士学位的HSI,佛罗里达大学是一所综合性研究型大学。在五年的时间里,该项目将为200名独特的学生提供奖学金:MDC的预转学A.A.生命科学学生;佛罗里达大学微生物学和细胞科学(MCS)专业转学学士学位;或在佛罗里达大学攻读MCS硕士学位的学生。虽然个人的时间表可能有所不同,但全日制学生通常会在每个级别(即攻读副学士学位,学士学位和硕士学位)获得长达两年的奖学金。迈阿密戴德学院招收了大量多样化的本科生,转学生更有可能来自历史上在STEM领域代表性不足的群体,包括女性、退伍军人和第一代大学生。因此,该项目有可能显著扩大STEM企业的参与,并确定影响低收入转校生留校和成功的关键因素。该项目还将为通过MCS攻读学士和硕士学位的学者提供在线选择,从而增加访问机会。在线教育进一步扩大了非传统学生的机会,包括成人学习者、学生家长和来自服务不足地区的个人。通过利用全州范围内的研究设施网络和现有的基于在线课程的本科生研究经验,面对面和在线学者都将能够参与教师指导的本科生研究。该项目的总体目标是提高有经济需求的低收入、高成就本科生的STEM学位完成率。该项目借鉴了MDC和佛罗里达大学之前的S-STEM项目的经验教训,该项目为攻读副学士学位和学士学位的学生提供了400多个奖学金。项目研究将使用焦点小组、学生调查、机构数据和2018年的现有S-STEM数据来调查2024年FAFSA的变化如何影响奖学金获得者的资格和奖励金额。该研究计划还将探讨奖学金对转学、毕业和坚持STEM的长期影响,并确定A.A.到学士学位转学过程中的障碍和成功干预措施。项目将由合格的独立评估人员进行评估,以确保项目目标的进展,并确定项目中最有效推动学生成功的因素。该项目的成果将通过在STEM教育会议、信息网络研讨会和同行评审期刊上发表的报告提供。该项目由美国国家科学基金会的科学、技术、工程和数学奖学金项目资助,旨在增加有经济需求的低收入学术天才学生在STEM领域获得学位的人数。它还旨在改善未来STEM工作者的教育,并为低收入学生提供有关学业成功、留校、转学、毕业和学术/职业道路的知识。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命,并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估,被认为值得支持。
